Chapter 474 Gaof Khan, do you know the best way to deal with the Mongolian cavalry? (Please subscribe, please vote)
How would the industrialized Ming Dynasty defeat the "Mongolian-style" cavalry carrying rifles and pulling field cannons?
Just when Admiral Hugh Gough, who had transformed into "Gough Khan", led his more than 200,000 Anglo-Saxon cavalry across the Great Dividing Range and appeared on the vast Australian grasslands, the command ship "Nanjing"
Zhuge was the Taoist, so he already knew it.
The first trick the Ming army used to defeat the "Mongolian-style" cavalry this time was airship reconnaissance!
Hugh Gough's army was still hundreds of kilometers away from the Brisbane battlefield. Photos of his Anglo-Saxon cavalry troops had already been sent to the "Nanjing" where Zhuge Weidao and Mu Zhongjun were aboard.
The "Nanjing" is now docked at the Robbery Beach in Brisbane, dropped a large anchor, and began to serve as the command ship of the "Pacific-Southern Continent General Admiral Division". And this "General Admiral Division" is actually
A joint headquarters, headed by Zhuge Weidao, the admiral of the Pacific Fleet, and Mu Zhongjun, the admiral of the Southern Continental Army.
Although the family of the Chief Admiral is composed of two admirals, the Admiral of the Pacific Fleet and the Admiral of the Southern Continental Army are still retained, and each is in charge of the maritime and land areas.
Therefore, this "General Admiral's Office" is actually a coordinating agency for the Ming Navy and Army in the Pacific-Southern Continent, and it is also a temporary government office. According to the plan, when the Ming Army completely captures Brisbane and completes the first phase of landing operations,
The main force of the Pacific Fleet will immediately return to Pearl Harbor along the coast of the Southern Continent to rest. After that, the land operations in the Southern Continent will have nothing to do with the Pacific Fleet. This area will be the work of the Southern Continent Legion.
However, the Pacific Fleet will not be idle. Next, it will be responsible for ensuring the logistics of the Southern Continental Army, and will also have to sweep the Solomon Islands, New Hebrides, New Guinea, New Guinea, New Caledonia, and Fiji.
, the British troops on New Zealand and other islands - these islands must be captured one by one, and a group of "little Ming kings" must be arranged to become kings later. From now on, they will all be vassals of the Ming Dynasty, together with England, France,
It doesn't matter about the Netherlands or anything.
If there is still a United Nations on this timeline, then during the meeting, there will be a big Ming leading a group of little Mings. A neat "family"!
In addition, Zhuge Weidao had to continue to worry about the battle in the Caribbean Sea.
The United States is much more difficult to deal with than Australia! Although their industrial technology is not very advanced, they have also crossed the threshold of industrialization, and they have unique conditions for industrialization. In the northeastern United States, coal mines, iron mines, oil, etc.
Everything is provided for you, and inland waterways with transportation costs that are cheaper than railways are arranged. Canals link these resources together, and the cost of industrialization is extremely low. Moreover, the United States has always been a European white-skinned startup, and it has turned around.
, a paradise to avoid starvation (for the Irish), capital and talents are constantly flowing to the United States. The industrialization of this United States is simply too easy!
Although the level of industrialization in the United States is not very high today, the scale is not small. In terms of hard indicators of early industrialization such as oil, coal, steel, and electricity, the United States is on the same level as France, Prussia, Rakshasa, and Austria.
If the Ming Dynasty and Great Britain are considered first-tier industrial countries, then the United States is still a second-tier industrial country, and it is very likely to become a new first-tier industrial country. Therefore, Mexico, the Texas Domain and the Republic of Florida have been fighting very hard during this period. More than half of Texas has fallen
The northern part of the Republic of Florida has also fallen to the hands of the United States, and Father Fidel Guevara has led his men to hide in the swamps to fight guerrillas.
What's even more troublesome is that the "New United States" class, which has improved its power system and strengthened its anti-aircraft firepower, has appeared on the Atlantic battlefield during this period! Since the Mexicans have not yet dug the Nicaragua Canal, the Ming Dynasty's Pacific Fleet is temporarily unable to get through it.
, so the Americans took back a little bit of sea control in the Caribbean.
If the Ming Dynasty could not defeat Australia in a short period of time, win the biggest victory in the war against Britain, start a "peace movement" with Britain, and then concentrate on containing the United States, then the United States, the chosen country, might be able to recover.
Therefore, Zhuge Weidao, who is well aware of the potential of the United States, is most worried about Hugh Goff's delaying tactics and keeping all his two to three hundred thousand troops in the Sydney Fortress area. For a year and a half, things happened
That's troublesome.
"Your Majesty," Zhuge Weidao looked up after reading the photo in his hand and asked Mu Zhongjun, who had already attacked Lord Qian, "What do you think of the cavalry in this photo?"
Mu Zhongjun knew cavalry. He studied cavalry in the military academy. Later, he served as a cavalry officer in the Mongolian grasslands and the Western Regions for several years. He served as the commander of the cavalry regiment, and then he was transferred to the Army Staff Department.
Later he transferred to the Army Aviation Corps.
When Zhuge Weidao asked, Mu Zhongjun was holding a magnifying glass and carefully looking at a photo at hand. While looking at it, he nodded and replied: "Yes, not bad, one person and two horses, and there are also a large number of carriages and cavalry cannons."
There are also many cavalry. To be honest, our cavalry in Mongolia and the Western Regions is not as good as others! Fortunately, Australia does not border us."
Are you from the Army asking me for military expenses? I, Zhuge Military Advisor, am from the Navy!
Zhuge Weidao almost amused Mu Zhongjun, and asked with a smile: "Can you deal with it? Do you want our navy to help?"
Of course, the Ming Dynasty also had disputes over land and sea. They had to compete for military expenditures! As long as the army and navy are not the same system and are evenly matched, there will inevitably be disputes.
"Of course!" Mu Zhongjun nodded, smiled and said to Zhuge Weidao, "Daozi, you have to lend me all the Ssangyong 2s in the carrier aviation, otherwise I will be really unsure!"
"Not sure?" Zhuge Weidao didn't know what to say, "Your Majesty, if I remember correctly, you have no less than 2,500 A-11 tanks on hand. There is also a reserve battle in Hawaii.
2,500 chariots! With so many chariots, isn’t it better to deal with those cavalry than to kill a chicken with a sledgehammer?”
Mu Zhongjun smiled and said: "Daozi, why are you so stingy? Those planes you have are not used for the time being. Let me use them first! Do you think that is enough to kill chickens with a sledgehammer? I have to add another box cannon.
Shooting the chicken is the only way to be safe!"
The "chicken" Gaofhan was miserable enough. He imitated the Mongolian cavalry, but Mu Zhongjun wanted to imitate the "American Army". Armored chariots alone were not enough, but he also had to drop bombs from airplanes!
If there is an atomic bomb, he probably wants to use it too.
Mu Zhongjun saw Zhuge Weidao's expression was a little strange, and thought he refused, so he said: "Daozi, our army is different from your navy. As long as your navy is strong enough, it can definitely win. Okay.
In this way, if the number one navy beats the number two navy, it is a sure win!
But land warfare is different. There are too many examples of using a small number to defeat a large number, and using the weak to defeat the strong. Therefore, land warfare cannot be ignored. We must try our best and use as much strength as we can. If we encounter a weak enemy, we must
Defeat them in one fell swoop. Defeat them. You must not hold back. Didn’t you see that he was as strong as a Rakshasa? He also suffered a big loss in Adrianople?
If your battleship can go ashore, I will borrow it for use!"
Zhuge Weidao was right to think about it. In another timeline, wouldn't a small Afghanistan have caused three big empires to suffer? We really have to do our best! Although Australia's terrain is not as steep as Afghanistan, but this
It is a continent of millions of square kilometers. If we cannot defeat the British at once and let them become nomadic in the vast inland area, this war will not be easy to fight.
"Okay!" Zhuge Weidao nodded, "I'll lend you eight squadrons of pilots and ground crews from the 2nd Ssangyong Company! With these, Your Majesty, you will be able to achieve a complete victory in a few days, right?
"
"No, it's not that easy to win completely!"
Chapter completed!
